Hi there!

Apple cannot upgrade your Mac. However, you can use an external SSD as your startup disk. An external SSD as your startup disk can give your Mac additional performance for system responsiveness, apps, startup, and more.

To learn more, see Use an external SSD as your startup disk with your iMac or Mac mini - Apple Community.

apple would not, but you may be able to find a local AASP that maybe would perform the upgrade for you. but a very cost effective alternative would be to use Jack-19's suggestion of using an external SSD and run macOS from it.
